Hey there! Thanks for clicking on this thread.
So I'm pretty new to hosting Rust Servers, and only started a few months back. My Rust server is a whitelisted Server which requires players to go to our Discord and send their SteamID64 directly to us and then we manually whitelist. Now obviously it isn't the most time consuming thing, but it also isn't the quickest thing due to timezones and admins being offline, e.g. being unable to whitelist.
So I've been thinking and thought of the possibility of the Whitelist plugin and the Discord Extension in combination for a new plugin which will allow players to type !whitelist add (steamid64) for example into a Discord Channel and then that will automatically give them the whitelist.allow permission in game. From what I know, this isn't currently possible (but I may be wrong).
As a rundown.. Discord and Whitelist Combination, allow players to whitelist themselves with a simple command on Discord, allow each user to only use the command once (eg only whitelist one account) and maybe even as a little QOL and addition, making it so the user has to have a certain group before it allows them to do it, or even after doing it the plugin will give them a group on Success.
Thanks for reading!
Hopefully it makes sense :)
